Singapore engulfed in X’mas festive air

Singapore (VNA) - Singaporeans are flocking to beautifully decorated
streets to
enjoy the festive atmosphere and plunge themselves into the Christmas joy in an area full of bustling shopping malls.

They have eagerly waited for the Christmas carnival with the presence of famous
Disney cartoon characters, which will be organised in the country for the first
time. The largest one in Southeast Asia is taking place in a 3-km street
decorated with hundreds of sparkling street lights.

The event offers a chance for visitors and locals to join
vibrant performance pogrammes on streets, learn how to make handicrafts, and
enjoy foods in exhibition areas.

Besides the event, which will last through the New Year day, a series of others are
being held in Singapore such as the Christmas
Wonderland festival, the Hongbao festival featuring giant lanterns, firework
display and a count-down party to welcome the New Year
